Sharing her experience, Rashmi said, “I had never met any celebrity before, and it was my dream to meet Amitabh Bachchan. When I saw him in person, I felt extremely nervous. Sitting at home, everything looks simple, but facing the lights, cameras, and answering questions under pressure is very challenging.”

She spoke warmly about Amitabh Bachchan, describing him as a humble and down-to-earth person. Rashmi shared a memorable moment from the show, saying, “During the episode, my glasses became foggy, and Mr. Bachchan himself took out a cloth and cleaned them for me. He even gave me the cloth as a keepsake. He also signed an autograph in my diary, which I’ve treasured and brought back to Ranchi.”

Rashmi said she has been a dedicated fan of KBC, watching every episode closely and hoping that one day she would get her chance on the hot seat. “I believe that those who try, never fail. This time, my efforts were successful,” she said, adding that she got stuck on the 11th question. “In this game, it’s important not to overthink or try to be over-smart,” she advised.

Rashmi’s story is one of perseverance, proving that dedication and hard work can turn dreams into reality.
